Day 29 - DO NO CHEAT!

YEsterday was my free day...and I took full advantage of it.  In fact, I went overboard. 

The day started easy enough...I made a Breakfast Pizza, striaight from the EFL cookbook.  Lunch is when things went downhill.  For Lunch, I took the family to a Mexican Resaurant...my plan was to have a couple of chicken fajitas.  Unfortunatly, my wife orderd cheese dip and I ate 3/4 of the bowl.  I also put sour cream and guacamole and CHEESE on my fajitas...instead of eating them stright up.

When we got home, I ate a chocolate bar...a couple of hours later, we decided to watch a movie and I ate a big bowl of popcorn...then I had a cheeseburger for dinner.  I was stuffed.  BUt for some reason, I also ate a hot dog about 8:30 last night...that was a BIG mistake.

Somewhere around 1:30 I woke up with a stomach ache...I could tast that hot dog I ate at 8:30 (I know that is gross...sorry).  Anyway, I had to take an Alka Selzer and then a couple of Pepcid AC's to put out the fire.  I felt HORRIBLE...then I could not go back to sleep until about 5:00.  My alarm went off at 6:30 for my workout...I felt like crap.

Fortunatly, I did go to my workout, which I'm very proud of...but after a the night I had, it wasn't all that great.  I'm back on track today with my eating...but I'm very tired.  I havn't been very productive.  I swear, I don't know why I do that to myself...it certainly is not worth the temporary pleasure of gorging to feel the way I do right now. 

The thing is, I used to eat that way everyday...I wonder if I felt this bad and didn't even know it.

Lesson learned:  Free days are fun and relaxing and I do think we should cheat a LITTLE...but we need to keep it under control. 

I hope you're having a better day than I am!!

God Bless.
